WLAN CONTROLLERSWireless LAN controllers can be sized accordingly for small, medium, enterprise and service provider wireless LAN deployments. They help reduce overall operational expenses by simplifying network deployment, operations, management and provide flexibility to grow wireless networks. They work in conjunction with Cisco lightweight access points and Cisco Prime Infrastructure software to support business-critical, wireless applications.

From voice and data services to location tracking, WLAN controllers provide the control, scalability, and reliability that IT managers need to build secure, enterprise-scale, wireless networks—from branch offices to outdoor campuses.

RF CAPABILITIESDynamic channel assignment: 802.11 channels are adjusted to optimize network coverage and performance based on changing RF conditions.

Interference detection and avoidance: The system detects interference and recalibrates the network to avoid performance problems.

Load balancing: The system provides automatic load balancing of users across multiple access points for optimum network performance, even under heavy load.

Coverage hole detection and correction: Radio Resource Management (RMM) software detects coverage holes and attempts to correct them by adjusting the power output of access points.

Dynamic power control: The system adjusts the power output of individual access points to accommodate changing network conditions. This helps to ensure wireless performance and availability.

BYOD SMART SOLUTIONThe Cisco BYOD Smart Solution provides a comprehensive approach to effectively design, manage, and control the access of a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) network. Cisco BYOD enhances user experiences and productivity.

Cisco Unified Wireless Network along with Cisco Identity Servies Engine (ISE) provides context-aware, identity-based policies that are reliably enforced in diverse and dynamic environments. Integration with the leaders in Mobile Device Management software suites along with user driven on-boarding help increase IT staff productivity and security confidence.
